Thread: Everybody fishing Mud again?

Good year class as Indiana does not stock except when the drain a lake and rehab it. I noticed in catching a lot of small 6 to 13 inch bass at Lemon also. There is a good diversity of yearly hatches of large mouth bass in the various sizes. The bass tourney guys always seem to catch a few 7 lb bass every year. Lemon is healthy. You need to study the east end and the headwaters of Lemon as the bio diversity Is there as well as shallow water fishing that very few fish. Lots of old canals around the houses on SE corner next to the creek that dumps into it. Lemon is also full of yellow perch.

In,fishing muddy water,,with the water temp in the 60’s..try your oranges, chartreuse, Bright yellows, blacks,, and mixes of those colors in Muddy water. Orange and bone, might work also.

Thanks for the information I have never fished that end but will try next time I’m there. We did catch one yellow perch that I kept because I know they are good eating!!!

Right now,,stay where your catching fish, when you get the urge to explore,,check it out.

I pretty much stick to the Kankakee, but it's high, muddy and way to fast to effectively fish from shore now...even the feeder creeks are high and muddy...might be time to play with chatterbaits and wait for the river to stabilize.
